Parishioners at a Bracknell church presented Rector Nick Parish with a cake during a Sunday service to celebrate 25 years since his ordination.

Everyone got a chance to taste a slice of the cake with their tea and coffee in Langley Hall after the service on Sunday, July 3.

Rev Parish was ordained at Southwark Cathedral 25 years ago and has been in Bracknell for the past 15 years.

Before moving to Bracknell in 1996, he worked as a curate in Eltham in South East London and also served as a team curate in Barnes in South West London, and as vicar of a parish in Tooting, South London.

Rev Parish said: “Apart from an intimate knowledge of the South Circular Road, I also gained great experience in these varied parishes.

“I was industrial missioner for the Bracknell area from 1996, before being appointed Rector of Bracknell Team Ministry four years ago. I thank God for my wife and family, and all the people I have been privileged to work alongside; I have learnt so much from them all.”
